THE ORIGINAL PUBLIC

Set inside the old art college, Public Loughborough is where it all began. Our space is open, light and home to our open bakery, so there’s usually the smell of fresh pastries somewhere in the background.

We’ve got a dedicated laptop area built around large shared tables for working, studying, or pretending to answer emails while you drink coffee. The rest of the space stays laptop-free, and on weekends and bank holidays we go completely screen-free, because not every coffee needs to happen next to a spreadsheet.

The plates, drinks and bakes that have earned their place on the menu. Here every day, no matter the season.

Public’s always been about creating spaces people can make their own. Some people come to work for a few hours, some stay for brunch with friends, some grab the same coffee every morning without even looking at the menu.

You’ll find students, families, freelancers, creatives, dogs under tables, first dates, regulars who know the team by name, and people discovering us by accident. We’ve never really wanted Public to belong to one type of person, the mix is the whole point.

Somewhere between the first visit and the fifth, people stop feeling like customers and start feeling familiar. That’s probably the bit we’re proudest of.
